Hello,
I am thinking to buy an Audya 4 and need an information from actual Audya owners: can one (or more) of you please tell me the format of the audio styles, stored in the "Styles" folder of the hard disk? The manual says that they are stereo "wav" files; can you confirm this?
Thanks in advance.

yes, the audio files are .wav. 44.1, stereo (at least the drums are)
they need to follow a certain naming convention

Leezone, thank you for the info; these are really great news!
So, if you open the styles folder, are you able to see all the 300 or so audio styles? And do they appear as a single long file or are they split into the different sections (intro 1, 2..., variation 1, 2... and so on)?
I am asking because the audio drums in Band in a Box, for example, are arranged in a single, very long file, which makes editing them a bit more complicated.

Hi my friend!!!
Yes....
In Audya you can to copy unlimit audio loops up 16 Bar (Variations) and you can with very easy way to have your loop in any style that you want...
The way that we have in Audya is this:

1) The system of Audya need a symbol like this @ to know how many bpm Tempo is the original Loop...
Therefore we need in any loop to rename my loops...
For example Rock_ARRA@130.wav this means (name=Rock, ARRA=Variation 1), @130=130bpm original tempo

2) Copy the loops to Audya Hard Disc on User Audio Drums Folder.

Now the loops is ready to use in any style... We can also with a style to have Audio loops and in the same Variation to have and Midi Drums also, Preset Audio Grooves)(on Percusion chanel), and of corse Live Audio (Preset) Guitars... Very good!!! .
And all these (outside Patern Record) we need from Style View...
If we need to Record any Drums, Perc, Chord we can from Patern Edit of Audya!!!

Hi Sokratis,
thank you for the info.
Have you ever tried to copy the internal audio loops to the hard disk of your PC and play/edit them with a program like Soundforge? Or maybe just listen to them using the Windows Media Player?
And are the internal audio loops protected or can you overwrite them once the editing is done?

Ciao Andrea!!!
The Internal Audio Drums is impossible to open, becouse these use a differnt file and no WAV file...
However if you know you can to Record (from SPDIF OUT) the loops in a DAW like Cubase, Logic, etc and here you can to have any edit that you want...

Thank you Sokratis,
that's all I needed to know, and of course I guess that also the audio guitar tracks are impossible to open... however, once you record the drums and the guitars to your PC (using the SPDIF out like you suggested) you can edit them and finally copy the new style to the Audya and save it like a user style, right?
By the way, I liked your songs, and I love Bebel Gilberto.

Yes Andrea... You are right!!!
